It would be nice if the argument was the desired height measured in
points (or perhaps in staff spaces)
instead of the current numerical argument where you need a lot of
trial and error.
If it was in points, then you could easily relate it to the height of
one staff, which is 20pt by default.
Unfortunately, it seems that the mapping from brace number to height
is non-linear (possibly
piecewise linear). I don't have the time right now to figure out the
exact relationship.
Now that I've looked a bit more careful, I see that the total height of
braceN is given by
10.5*(1+1/150)^N
so in other words, if the desired height is H, you can get the number of
the corresponding
brace glyph by
(round (/ (log (/ H 10.5)) (log (+ 1 (/ 1 150)))))
